1. Come Thou Fount of every blessing |
|
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace; |
|
Streams of mercy, never ceasing, |
|
Call for songs of loudest praise |
|
Teach me some melodious sonnet, |
|
Sung by flaming tongues above. |
|
Praise the mount! I'm fixed upon it, |
|
Mount of God's unchanging love. |
|
2. Here I raise my Ebenezer; |
|
Hither by Thy help I'm come; |
|
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure, |
|
Safely to arrive at home. |
|
Jesus sought me when a stranger, |
|
Wandering from the fold of God; |
|
He, to rescue me from danger, |
|
Interposed His precious blood. |
|
3. O to grace how great a debtor |
|
Daily I'm constrained to be! |
|
Let that grace now like a fetter, |
|
Bind my wandering heart to Thee. |
|
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, |
|
Prone to leave the God I love; |
|
Here's my heart, O take and seal it, |
|
Seal it for Thy courts above. |
